Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut has lent his support to Rahul Gandhi's assertions following China's release of a revised map that incorporates Arunachal Pradesh and the Aksai Chin region as part of Chinese territory. Raut emphasized that if the Central government possesses the necessary resolve, it should consider a surgical strike against China in response.

Raut's remarks come in the wake of Rahul Gandhi's claims about Chinese incursions into Ladakh's Pangong valley.
